Why do you call it a closed language? It hasn't been released yet. It will be open-sourced in 2 days.

> Most notably, source for V's toolchain has been teased repeatedly as coming soon,

It hasn't been teased repeatedly. It's been "coming in June" since February.

Why lie?

Why gaslight?

Can the V toolchain translate C++ to V? It could in February [0] and May [1]. You had only to document it [2]; will the feature be available at the end of the week?

The example you pointed to, actually, yes it can.

Now, waiting for your reply on my previous question about the deadlines. Why lie?

I've not lied, nor misled, just exposed and laid bare. Let's see if you make your deadlines and get your features published.
